How to check authenticated user in client components

[ringge]

Hello, I tried to use validateRequest() in a client component and got error saying next/headers is only available on server components, so how should we check authenticated user in client components? Anyone has any solutions? Appreciate your help.

hi @ringge , you can call validateRequest in server component only. and then you can receive the user object as prop in the client component.
